Break-Up Rumors, Is Luka Modric Single Again?

Are celebrities more likely to divorce or break up? Earlier this week news reports surfaced that Luka Modric, 40, and his partner had split up. Is Ballon d'Or 2018 really single again?

UPDATE 21/07/2026 : This story seems to be false. (read more)

Modrić spotted alone

A fan spotted Luka Modric walking alone, probably coming back from picking up his mail at the end of his several mile long driveway, on the afternoon of July 19, 2026. Was he all alone? “Definitely yes,” says the fan, adding that “He was wearing a large sweater and looked really cute!”

Is Luka back on the market?

A rep for Luka Modric was not immediately available for comment.

Truth or rumor, when news that the footballer was splitting hit the internet Monday (July 20), Twitter immediately exploded with pithy commentary. It seems everyone had an opinion on the matter:

“Has anyone Luka’s phone number?”

“So very sad… Those 2 were so great as a couple. So cute together.”

Based on the facts (Modrić spotted alone with a cute sweater), is there trouble in paradise or is it much ado about nothing?
